DYElNG AND WAxENDlNG.


A Fashion Which Persisted with tho
French Empire-The Modern Iica.
No one except policemen, tircmen, especial.
ly exempt firemen, and n few chivalrous
and ancient gentlemen, now dyes his mus.
tache, and the number of the men who change
the color of their hair by artificial means is
smaller still. When the policeman with five
service stripes was sworn it was the custom
of Amos everybody to use dye. Napoleon
III was partially responsible for this. He
had n gorgeous mustaclie, black and with
nice long ends ready for a wax polish like a
wholesome stove. He set the fashion for
Paris, and Paris for America. Now the GUS
tom has almost gone out, and the purple
black Ill ustache is rare throughout the land.
An old barber, who has been i'll the bust
ness a good lifetime, explained the change.
"Twenty years ago third of the lmen that
came here wanted their moustaches dyed. A
man will Il heavy ind fast growing mus.
tacle had to have it dyed every week, and il
was a good thing for us. Even ten years Z
there We're many of them left, but the fall of
the French empire and the emperor left the
style without support, and the character Of
the mustache changed. Instead of being
long, glossy and black, short and stubby
mustacles came into fashion.
"Cubans and southern men began to raise
mustachcs without eeer shaving their upper
lips. This made the hairs come out in grace
full clusters instead of spikes and long stiff
hairs. There isn't any use of dyeing a mus
tacho unless you raise a long one and a
out the ends. so these short, clustering mus
taches changed the dyeing fashion. The
knowledge of the chemicals employed had a
great deal to do with it. Powerful acids and
compounds are at the base of all dyes and
hair restorels that do anything. If weak So
lutions of harmless things are used they will
have no effect, while a drug powerful enough
to change the color of the lair must have
some effect on the scalp and the brain, as the
base of all hair dyes was nitrate of silver.
cat the SAINT time, with the notoriety of
several cases of poisoning from hairdye. came
a reaction of fashion i'll favor of gray hair
and bald heads. The young man who had a
patch of scalp showing through the top Of
his head, instead of concealing it, had his
hair cut so that it showed, AMI he was envied
by his fellow young men. 1t also became
fashionable for Il young ma with black hair
to have a few gray threads in it. 1t made
him an object of interest on account of sup
posed woes and trials that made his hair grow
prcmaturcly gray. Dyeing the hair would
destroy this charm, and dyeing went speedily
out of fashion ."-New York Sun.

LUCK OF JERSEY FISHERMEN.
While Summer Idlers Sleep tho Native
Begin Their Toll of tho Sea.

While Summer Idiers Sleep tho Natives
Begin Their Toll of tho Sea.
Summer idlers along the Jersey coast sell
dom rise early enough tn see the native fisher
men begin their days work, though the sight
is well worth the loss OF all hours sleep.
While the sun is still low and the horizon dim
with mist, the little honts are launched
through the surf and rowed beyond the
breakers. Then the sails are set and the
little crafts ure soon keeled over and making
for the open sea. They rise and fall as buoy
ant rs cork>, and us they bob up here and
lose themselves from sight behind a huge
wave then they remind one of the profile
boats used III theatrical representations.
AS II rule, a fishing fleet consists Of about
ten boats. They go out and return together.
Each boat could easily accommodate six
persons, but two is the usual complement.
1t is regarded as unsafe to carry more.
When tho spot where the fishing is to he car
ried on Is reached they cast out their
anchors about 400 or $40 yards apart, and
proceed to fiji the bow with all manner of
fish. Spanish mackerel, founders, bluetish
and sea bass constitute the major portion of
n Jersey tshcrman's catch, although they
sometimes hook a kingtish or a dogtish. They
use tho simplest kind of tackle and the flesh
of fish for bait. About 10 o'clock they start
for homo and land always at one place. One
after another they come in on the crest of a
huge wave and land far up on the sand. 1t
takes science to land q boat in this way, and
sometimes the fishermen wait half oil hour
for n wave to "homc them" 1t pays to be
cautious, however, for to upset q boat means
to lose tho result of a days work.
The homes of the fishermen stand back
from tho shore among the knotted and
twisted pine trees. They are low, shingled1
cottages, with ceiling only high enough to
permit a man to stand upright. The windows
arc small and seem to be of use more for
ventilation than giving light. Here the fish
erman takes his fish. He cleans them and
packs them away, ready to be sent to the
nearest market. The pay, however, for all
this risk of life, all this work and u winter of
hardship, is very little. Occasionally n fish
erman will bring home IL catch that will net
him a tidy sum, but it happens more often
that he gets only enough to provide himself
with the commonestn necessities of life. His
earnings arc less than n laborer's, and were it
not for the amateur fishermen who often &c
company HIM, only to get wet, hungry and
seasick, tho Jersey fisherman would be even
worse Off than he is.-New York Nail and
Express.

George Ashmun used to tell n story about
an auctioneer who was provokingly annoyed
while i'll the exercise Of his profession by the
ludicrous bids Of n fellow whose sole object
seemed TO be to make sport for the buyers
rather than himself to buy. At length, ell
ragged beyond endurance, the knight of the

fixed his eyes upon a biped Of huge dimen-

out:

An Honor to tho NAVY.

A service journal describes the appointment
OF the Prince of Wales as honorary admiral
OF the fleet as "a great honor to the navy" 1t
seems to me to he a most fantastical puerility,
and one calculated to bring both navy and
prince into ridicule and contempt. The
Prince of Wales has merely received this ap
pointment i'll order that he may be qualified
to wear another becoming uniform. There
